PowerStop EBR1218XPR Disc Brake Rotor Set - Front

Front Brake Rotor Upgrade for BMW X5 and X6

PowerStop EBR1218XPR is a front drilled and slotted brake rotor set built for BMW X5 and BMW X6 applications. It uses a direct OE fit, so the rotor installs without special modifications while adding cooling and surface-cleaning features for demanding braking conditions.

The Power Stop front drilled, slotted and zinc plated brake rotor pair is a practical upgrade for drivers who want improved heat management, cleaner pad contact, and corrosion resistance in a factory-style replacement format.

Key Features

• Precision cross-drilled surface helps move heat away during repeated braking
• Rounded slots clear gas, dust, and moisture from the rotor face
• Silver zinc dichromate coating helps resist rust and corrosion
• Direct OE fit for straightforward replacement on the listed BMW applications
• Vented rotor design with a slotted X drilled surface type
• 14.40 in. outside diameter, 2.50 in. overall height, and 5-lug mounting pattern

Detailed Description

PowerStop EBR1218XPR is engineered as a front disc brake rotor set for 2008-2019 BMW X6 and 2011-2015 BMW X5, with additional coverage for 2016-2018 BMW X5 and 2014-2015 BMW X5 except M Performance Brakes. The rotor’s drilled and slotted design supports brake cooling and helps maintain a cleaner friction surface, while the zinc plated finish adds protection against surface rust in everyday driving and wet-weather use. This part cross-references Raybestos Brakes 980701 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake fade during repeated stops or heavier braking
• Heat buildup at the front axle
• Rotor surface contamination from dust, gas, and moisture
• Rust formation on exposed rotor surfaces
• Replacement needs for worn front brake rotors on BMW X5 and X6 models

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 2008-2019 BMW X6, front; 2011-2013 BMW X5, front; 2014-2015 BMW X5, front except M Performance Brakes; and 2016-2018 BMW X5, front. Verify rotor dimensions, hub fitment, and brake package details before installation. EBR1218XPR is a direct OE-fit rotor, so no special modifications are required when the vehicle application matches the listing.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop uses a drilled and slotted rotor design with zinc dichromate plating to support consistent braking performance and corrosion resistance in the listed BMW X5 and BMW X6 front applications.
